Danny wants a new pet but he doesn’t want a dog, a cat or even a parrot; he wants a DINOSAUR! However, it isn’t long before Danny realises that dinosaurs aren’t the easiest pets to keep.

The Wondrous Dinosaurium was illustrated by the stupendous Steve Brown and published by the marvellous Maverick Arts. It has been translated across the globe, from Denmark all the way to Korea and back around to the United States. It has also been nominated for several awards, including the Children’s Book Award. You can order your copy here or through your preferred online bookseller.

The Letterpress Project

“You’ll love it, your kids will love it; boys and girls alike. So, go get it.”
Mrs Average Evaluates

“If you’ve got a little one in the peak dinosaur madness phase then they will love this book. And it may even tempt back an older child who thinks they’re too old for dinosaurs now!”
The Ish Mother

“Maverick Arts never fail us in providing exceptional stories, superbly illustrated. This debut picture book is another excellent addition to their range.”
Parents in Touch

“Danny wants a new pet. He doesn’t want any old boring pet, like a cat or a dog or a goldfish. Danny wants a dinosaur. What follows is a trip … or two … to the Dinosaurium, a bucket-load of havoc and a spectacularly cute cameo from a tortoise.”
